New candidate! Bayern enquire about next Premier League coach | OneFootball

In their search for a new coach, the Bayern management are probably looking towards England. They have apparently already held talks with Vincent Kompany from the Premier League. Now they are also said to have enquired about the Dane Thomas Frank from FC Brentford.

Coach Thomas Frank from Brentford FC is apparently a candidate for the job at FC Bayern. According to the English newspaper The Standard, Bayern officials have enquired with Frank’s management about his status.

However, according to the report, the German record champions have not yet contacted Frank’s current club Brentford. Brentford are still confident that the Danish coach will remain at the club next season.

The 50-year-old has been coach of the west London club since 2018. He was previously assistant coach there from 2016 to 2018. Before that, Frank worked in his native Denmark as coach of first division club Bröndby IF.

Bayern hold talks with Vincent Kompany

Frank was not a professional footballer himself, but only played at amateur level and initially worked his way up as a youth coach. He finished the past season in 16th place in the Premier League with Brentford.

Frank is probably not the only coach from the Premier League that Bayern have in mind. According to information from Sky and transfer expert Fabrizio Roman, the club have already held talks with Vincent Kompany. The 38-year-old Belgian is currently under contract with Burnley FC, with whom he has just been relegated from the Premier League.

In the previous season, however, Kompany had also led the club to promotion to the top division in England. The former Hamburger SV professional speaks German and is currently regarded as one of the biggest coaching talents – despite his team’s poor performance.
